The WRC DES Offshore helmet has the same shape and fit as the WRC DES 8860 helmet, but without the extra thick 100% Carbon Fiber shell. It is formed in the same manner as the 8860, but with a Kevlar/Fiberglass mix which yields a competitively priced helmet without sacrificing shell integrity and weight. This helmet is FIA 8859 certified.
Features an M6 nut integrated into the shell to interface with Head and Neck Restraint Systems.
The integrated microphone boom sets the WRC DES apart from other open face helmets and gives not only a secure location for communications equipment, but forward impact protection as well.
Noise Attenuating Earmuffs - These earmuffs provide a significantly quieter environment for the driver by aurally isolating the ear. The pressure upon the head can be adjusted by replacing the special foam rubber pads placed between the earmuff and the helmet. The earmuffs unique shape ensures they stay in place and do not make the helmet difficult to put on or take off.
Adjustable Microphone Position - The WRC DES is fitted with an easily adjustable microphone mounting system. When purchased with electronics, the microphone comes with 4 5mm spacers to be used to achieve the perfect microphone placement.
Integrated Electronics Plug - The integrated electronics jack is positioned far enough away from the HANS post anchor in order to make the use of the jack trouble free even when the HANS is worn. The wiring is all positioned safely and conveniently behind the padding so as to be transparent to the user. There are no hanging wires in the helmet, everything stays put where it is supposed to be.
EPS Cheek Pads - The WRC DES is the only open face helmet on the market that comes with both earmuffs and cheek pads. These cheek pads provide the best in lateral crash safety, while retaining the functionality of the earmuffs to provide a comfortable aural environment for communication.
Visor Options - The standard Adjustable Peak Visor can be fitted in addition to a flip-up visor option. The peak visor can be lowered to give the driver an effective means of blocking the sun as it gets lower on the horizon. The optional visor is a high quality flip-up smoked visor with a safety lock for the open position. It can be removed if needed. <a href="https://www.stilohelmets.com/stilo-replacement-shields/">Replacement visors</a> also available separately.
